A Sketchy Account of The Struggle for

The Day We Celebrate to Commemorate
a Great Event Just Seventy-Three
Years Ago To-day,

Upon different occasions we Ameri-
cans have been accused of sighting and
overlooking the Scandinavians. These
accusations, sometimes forthcoming in
yelled hints and sometimes through
open protestationS, may be more or less

certain localities. But the GLOBE be-
lieveS honestly that, taken as a
whole, the assertion is erroneous. II
furthermore wishes to enter an earnest
protest againt it, and looks upon the
Scandinavian element rs one of the
most industrious and enterpriSing Of our
great nation and equal to all the calls OF
our rapidly developing existence. The
ScandinaVianS have done more TO cult

is entered upon and there is grit enough
to back up the first step.
As matters stand at present the union
between Norway and Sweden is self
protective, at least until the time comes
when Democratic principles shall pre-
vail all over Europe and turn the mon
archical rascals out which time may
be not very far off. But through
all her national victories at home,
Norway has had an unconquerable
calamity TO combat with. She has al
ways been richer in the consuming than
in the producing capacity Of the neceS-
sites of this life. Hence the extensive
emigration of this cOuntry-and in our
towns and all over our prairies to-day
we find the sturdy sons of midnight
sun-kissed Nordland, of the Industrious
ThrondhjemsSe, of Romsdal and Sogn,
of the fair Hardangerfiord, of hard
coasted Lister and Lindesnaes and of
SmaaleneneS, HedemarkenS and Dol
eTnc'S broad levels settled down as bread
winners, in which pursuit they have
nightly helped to build our North
western communities and uphold them.
And to all these to-day the GLOBE eX-
tends its ''IIail!' Hail to freedom and
liberty-lOving people all over the world,
and tenfOld so to a nation who has en-
twined itself to such an extent with our

There was Sweden, with a well-trained
army still excited with recent victories,
claiming the fulfillment of the transfer
as given by the Danish king, and behind
this claim Russia and Germany stood
with ready arms promised i'll support of
it. There was Norway itself, without
any resources at all, without arms and
with no soldiers in trim. But the

How our English friends must smile in derision at the very "small potetoes'' we make of Protection; the Travesty on the Tariff would perhaps be the better phrase.

The uphot was that Irving had to pay S5 duty for the English dys- peptic compound; and we suppose the country, it's manufactures and it's interests are safe for all time' because of this most important seizure.
